<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> Typical types of natural disasters that occur in Korea are damages from heavy rain, storm, and heavy snow. In order to prepare for this, the storm and flood damage insurance program is operated. For this purpose, the risk of these damages is calculated for each region, and the storm and flood damage insurance map is created based on the risk. This map can provide insight into the degree of risk to wind and flood, snow damage, as well as policies to prevent and prepare for each type of natural disaster. In order to support decision-making by utilizing this insurance map, it is necessary to use with disaster Information contents. In order to efficiently construct such disaster information contents, it is possible to utilize public data produced by various organizations. Korea has a public data portal to open various administrative information. The public data portal currently publishes and updates about 25,000 data from 700 organizations. In this study, the linkage system is designed that can construct disaster information contents by collecting public data and processing it so that it can be overlapped with the insurance map. The system automatically links public data to keep up-to-date disaster information content. It is expected that it will be able to prevent and prepare for natural disaster by supporting the decision making of decision makers related to flood damage.</p>

False Accusations

When the hashtag #metoo began to circulate in digital and social media, it challenged a familiar interpretation of those who are raped or sexually harassed as victims, positioning women as embodied agents. Yet, almost exactly a year after the #metoo movement shot to visible prominence, a different, though eerily similar, story began to circulate on the same multi-media platforms as #metoo: a story about white male victimhood. Powerful men in positions of privilege (almost always white) began to take up the mantle of victimhood as their own, often claiming to be victims of false accusations of sexual harassment and assault by women. Through the analysis of five public statements by highly visible, powerful men who have been accused of sexual violence, I argue that the discourse of victimhood is appropriated not by those who have historically suffered but by those in positions of patriarchal power. Almost all of the statements contain some sentiment about how the accusation (occasionally acknowledging the actual violence) ‘ruined their life’, and all of the statements analyzed here center the author, the accused white man, as the key subject in peril and the authors position themselves as truth-tellers about the incidents. These statements underscore certain shifts in the public perception of sexual violence; the very success of the #metoo movement in shifting the narrative has meant that men have had to defend themselves more explicitly in public. In order to wrestle back a hegemonic gender stability, these men take on the mantle of victimhood themselves.

This research aims to find a model of disaster information dissemination based on volunteer communities in Bandung Regency, West Java, Indonesia. In this research, data obtained from Focus Group Discussion (FGD) conducted by informants, in-depth interview with the experts related to this research, observation and literature review are analyzed. The sampling was done by purposive sample with criteria such as a person who (1) has been a volunteer disaster at least 1 year; (2) joins a volunteer community; (3) obtains a volunteer training (4) is active as disaster volunteer in the past year, conducting from five of volunteer communities, namely: TAGANA, UCS, PSM, SIBAT and DASI PENA. The total number of the informants is 13 people. Triangulation method is used by interviewing two of disaster practitioners who deal directly with disaster volunteer communities. The research results show (1) The person in charge for disaster information dissemination in Bandung Regency is Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD) through the Operations Control Center Manager (PUSDALOPS) and the process of information dissemination begins with the early warning which is delivered to the village and sub-district or to the disaster volunteer communities via radio, SMS Gateway, words of mouth, website, blog, Twitter and Facebook; (2) There are many volunteer communities in Bandung Regency, some of which is founded by government agencies, private sectors, political parties, professional communities, the public, etc.; (3) The supervising institutions of volunteer communities provides the training to the members to have knowledges and skills to be able to deal with the disasters, protect themselves and help the others; (4) The character of the people who have experience in disaster frequently in the environment tends to think that disasters is a normal occurrence and feel like already knows everything so they are passive in seeking of disaster information. The characteristics of community are also influenced by religion and belief, environmental, economic, social and cultural factors as well as technological factors. (5) The role of the volunteer communities in the dissemination of disaster information is divided into three phases: pre-disaster, emergency response and post-disaster. The activities can be in the form of socialization, simulations and coaching for disasters, correcting the disaster disinformation, etc. (6) The volunteer communities coordinate with local community leaders/opinion leaders to make effective communication process with the public. (7) The direction of command/ coordination of disaster information dissemination based on volunteer communities started from the command of BPBD, then coordinated with the supervising institutions of volunteer communities, collaboration with opinion leaders and then prepare a good communication strategy in order to disseminate disaster information can be received by the public well. With good knowledge of the disaster, it is expected that the society becomes aware to the disaster, keeps the environment, protects themselves and helps families and the others, participating in disaster management and disaster risk reduction on pre-disaster, emergency response, and post-disaster (8) The model of disaster information dissemination is started from the policy of disaster management by appointing the person in charge for disaster information dissemination and coordinating with related parties, and then it is continued by determining the dissemination target, identifying the needs of disaster information, selecting and identifying the available information source and producing new information that has not been available yet but the people need it, composing module or disaster information package, arranging the message delivery strategy, choosing volunteer community as an information channel, coordinating with all of the parties in the field, executing the disaster information dissemination, collecting feedback, evaluating, compiling the report and recommendation from related parties as the material to make the policy of information dissemination better for the future.

Disaster Information

Indonesia is one of the countries with high exposure to natural hazards, frequent disaster events, and a highly vulnerable population. Hence, risk communication and disaster information dissemination are crucial to reducing risks. Numerous disaster mobile applications (apps) with location-based services or maps already exist for facilitating risk communication to the public; however, availability does not automatically translate into use or adoption. Therefore, to understand factors influencing the adoption of a map-based disaster application, this study examined factors that affect the adoption of a local government-initiated map-based disaster application in Indonesia, namely Sistem Informasi Kebencanaan Kabupaten Magelang or Disaster Information System of Magelang Regency (SIKK Magelang) through the theoretical lenses of a combined information system (IS) success model. Partial Least Squared – Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM), with the help of Smart-PLS, was used to examine the hypothesized relationships among the proposed constructs. A questionnaire survey with an application trial was conducted in Magelang Regency for the data collection. The study results confirmed the applicability of the combined IS success model frameworks in predicting the adoption of a map-based disaster app by the public. Although new constructs representing disaster-related and familiarity with online maps were initially proposed in the contextual model, the model validation results showed that intention to use SIKK Magelang was significantly influenced only by perceived usefulness and user satisfaction. Practically, this study guides the local emergency managers in Indonesia, especially Magelang Regency, to develop strategies to increase the applications’ adoption.
